You know how sometimes you see a picture of a dish, and you think to yourself “Man, that looks so tasty!”, without even knowing what’s in it? Well, I had that moment this week. I didn’t even look at what the dish was called at first, I just saw a bowl of soup that was…

Just in time for Thanksgiving, have I got the best unconventional dessert for you (Or, in our case, breakfast)! Alright, so I’m due this week to have baby arrive in the world, so we decided this thanksgiving not to go far from home in case anything happened. Of course, here we still sit waiting, but…
